You do NOT need a euro-plate frame to use the plate. I have a few plastic euro frames and they look cheap and I elected to never use them again (on my m3 or any of the other cars)
Just attach it with double sided tape and it looks clean.

no issues with it like getting loose or falling off especially after washing? I also noticed it sits a little bit higher up, like half the plate is above the top lip of bumper...no issues with it possibly bending? last thing i need is it flying off on the HWY!! HAHA well maybe not so funny if it happens.

^yo fellas, I only put on the euro plate for the same reason - HIDE THOSE UGLY holes the dealer drill!
otherwise I would not put anything there ![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
It's attached via 3M industrial strength tape, it's rock solid and the only way to remove it would be to heat it with a hairdryer til the tape softens before you even have a chance at yanking it off. It's attached to the oem front plate holder and I wanted it to sit a bit high - looks better in person trust me.

My issue is not just the cost of repainting the bumper but also I would have to remove and redo the clear bra so not worth it for me. I'm happy just using my euro plate for now

A long long time ago when car forums were in it's infancy, I joined Audiworld and had my b5 S4 so that's where the "s4play" came from ![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
